A jig became
a brand
Core Tackle started with a problem every tournament angler knows: the rig that catches doesn't exist at retail. So we built it.

Built by anglers
who actually fish
Core Tackle was started by Major League Fishing pro Matt Stefan and Jonny Schultz of Fish the Moment. Every rig is a practical fix to a real technique: prototyped in the shop, then tested on bodies of water across the country before it earns a spot in the lineup. Designed in Stevens Point, Wisconsin. Fished everywhere.
The Core Tackle standard
Solve a real problem
Every product starts as a fix for a technique the pros actually fish, not a color swap on something that already exists.
Test until it's proven
Rigs earn their spot across seasons of water time on rivers, grass lakes and ledges before we sell a single pack.
Made in the USA
Designed and built here, with the quality control that lets us put our names on the package.
The right rig for
your water
Tell us where you fish and how, and we'll route you straight to the rig that catches on your lake, not a wall of 90 SKUs. Takes 20 seconds.
